Story

Maple Reinders was awarded a Design-Build contract by GFS for the expansion of their existing facility in Edmonton. The existing facility was expanded on the west, north, and east elevations and included: dry warehouse expansion (34,434 SF), new cooler warehouse (7,999 SF), new freezer warehouse (37,157 SF) addition to ICP freezer (12,131 SF) and an additional 17,287 SF for Intercity Packers.

A new access road was built for trucks to two new dock levelers, including new approach and gate access and the south parking lot expansion for trailer and truck parking. Complex coordination was required on this project as the existing building and parking continued to operate 24/7, and Maple Reinders had to tie into this building for water, fire protection systems and refrigeration systems.

Previous Project
